This felt like a work in progress. It is a lovely setting among the bush, and within the park it feels pretty "natural". But, not many animals to see, and large parts were "coming soon" or "under construction". It has great potential though.

Seems like it needs a revamp- empty enclosures and closed reptile facility with no explanation….

3rd time we have visited and seems to have gone downhill. Very few animals to be seen, areas closed off, other areas with just nothing. Always thought this as the better value and more relaxed alternative to Currumbin but this visit was not good.

It was quite inspiring to learn about the life and work of Dr. David Fleay. The park itself is a lovely place. However, it is not that well maintained, perhaps due to lack of funding. I watched 2 shows, the birds show and the crocodile show. They were well conducted, and the volunteers were quite knowledgeable on their respective subjects. It is a nice place to go for a walk. However, there isn't much to see. There is a cafe close to the entrance, but with rather limited vegetarian/ vegan options. Tickets can be purchased at the entrance. There is a free car park which is wheelchair accessible.

A great wildlife park where you can see some Interesting animals. The bird display and the keeper talks are very interesting. There is some improvement works going on at the moment, so some areas were not accessible.
